90 - CL SBC
4.0
One of the better SBCs this year
By JWNYsg, 17-04-2019

Was actually apprehensive as wanted to save 120-150k coins at first. But then saw it could be done cheaper so i thought, just do it


i mean, compared to the Robben Premium SBC, this or the Ramsey one is far easier to obtain


Let's get to it, i play a traditional 4-4-1-1. Put Karim at CF with Hawk chemistry, which is similar to my main squad and the position is taken by Mandzukic.


I found them quite similar other than Karim's M / M work rate. He scored goals for me, created chances, held up play well to support the counter attacks


Used him in the weekend league and did well for me, Div 5 player, finishing Gold 3. In fact i rotated my sole strikers from Carniball Inaki, SIF Suarez and ended with UCL Live Griezzy.


Glad i did the SBC, i now favour Karim playing in this La Liga team of mine

  • Much better than the UCL Live card
  • People talk about the Defending stat lowered, but didn't really affect my play much
  • Good with head and both feet
  • Not the fastest card but can mitigate with Hunter or Catalyst chem
  • M work rate bothers me as i like players who hustle the ball

Other Karim Benzema Reviews

Benzema:

Trust me. Get this card. I have only played 6 games with him but in division 1 of division rivals and I tell you, he is something else. I have previously tried UCL TOTGS griezmann, aguero, etc. He is a combination of these two on steroids. I have scored 15 goals with 3 assists. Incredible finishing. Brilliant long shots. Decent Dribbling. Surprisingly good passing. Good enough physical (scored 3 headers). To be fair however...

Benzema? WOW!

When I first saw these cards I needed to have one. The card art is probably one of the best I've seen. I bought Benzema or 130,000 and it was worth every coin, when I first saw this card the first thing that came to my mind was "Why Benzema?". IRL I think Benzema is grossly overrated but for a special card that upgrades every stage Real gets to is 100% worth the coins. He is probably one of the most fun strikers that I have...

End game playmaker

So your main question is: is he worth doing? My anwser would be - of course. For around 120k you are getting an end game player rated 96 on CF with maestro chem. style. I managed to lower the cost of Benzema with some untradables to only 40k. First thing I did was moving him to a CAM role in a 4-3-3(4) tactic. The main aspect I directly noticed was his ball control - it is like he has a glue on his feets. Because of that he...
